Black Knights Armorial

"We will not rest until every single Fallen Angel has been Hunted. Their suffering shall be but a beginning to their penance...their screams, the harbinger of their contrition." — Grand Master Althalos of the Black Knights The Black Knights are an ancient and proud Loyalist Space Marine Chapter created from the lineage of the secretive and mighty Dark Angels Legion of old. They were created during the Second Founding following the conclusion of the terrible galaxy-wide conflict known as the Horus Heresy, and the subsequent wars of reciprocity known as the Great Scouring. The Black Knights were created as one of several Successor Chapters following the dissolution of the Legiones Astartes into separate, smaller Chapters. Thus, the Black Knights are counted amongst the ranks of the Unforgiven. A fleet-based crusading Chapter, the Black Knights follow in the footsteps of the Lion and their Progenitors, and will not rest until every single Fallen Angel has been hunted down and brought back to the Rock, to be interrogated and granted extreme unction by the Interrogator-Chaplains of the Dark Angels. As a crusading Chapter, their doctrines, traditions, and organisation reflect their particular approach to prosecuting the Imperium's wars. The Black Knights are wont to become embroiled in battles that other forces would have little hope of winning, particularly Zone Mortalis operations and 'Forlorn Objective' assaults. They are unrelenting in their persecution of the Emperor's foes, reserving a particular loathing for the Traitor Legions and those who make truck with the Ruinous Powers. The Black Knights absolutely refuse to retreat in the face of any foe, however, this stubbornness has often come at a high price. Their willingness to suffer horrific casualties in the name of victory has seen their very survival as a Chapter be put into jeopardy more than once down the long millennia. The Astartes of this Chapter are grim and dour, with all their warriors wearing battle-plate of jet-black and deep red. Extant reports, however, indicate that this Chapter wields all manner of ancient relics and holy patterns of armour, weapons, and vehicles not commonly seen on the battlefields of the modern era. Aloof and secretive, this Chapter keeps their own counsel, concentrating solely on their duties to the exclusion of all else. Shunning accolades and laurels, they are less well-known than other Unforgiven Chapters. Bellicose and unforgiving, the Black Knights are famed for arriving in a warzone without warning and attacking without a preamble. Upon eradicating their foe they take their leave and disappear without a word, leaving naught but ash and death in their wake. Read More: Black Knights© Algrim Whitefang

Black Knights Furibundus Dreadnought

Pictured Above: Venerable-Seneschal Baraquiel, Tormented Seraph of the Bleak Host, relic Furibundus pattern Dreadnought of the Black Knights' 4th Company. Venerable-Seneschal Baraquiel is the oldest of the Black Knights' Battle-Brothers, having served in the ancient Ist Legion during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. Baraquiel had risen to the rank of Seneschal before he "died" during the disastrous Canis-Balor campaign. Despite suffering horrendous wounds, his mortal remains still clung to life, and he was attended upon by the Legion's finest Apothecaries and Techmarines. Through their ministrations Baraquiel was resurrected, honoured for his service and became one of the Ist Legion's earliest Dreadnoughts. Barquiel's mortal remains were interred within an ancient Furibundus pattern Dreadnought before the techniques for the creation of these cybernetic veterans had been perfected. The design of this proto-dreadnought hailed from the technologically advanced Terrawatt Clans of Terra and was capable of being piloted not only by mortal human pilots but was later adapted to accommodate the bulk of a hard-wired, near-dead transhuman Astartes. With its successful use during the early years of the Great Crusade, the Furibundus dreadnought was officially sanctioned by the Martian Mechanicum becoming one of the Legiones Astartes' earliest recognised dreadnought patterns. During the Rangdan Xenocides, Baraquiel served under the command of his Chapter's founder, Uriah Marbas, who was then a lieutenant of the 27th Company. Following his commander's elevation to the esteemed rank of Chapter Master and given command of the newly re-constituted 15th Chapter, Baraquiel would continue to serve under Marbas' command for the remainder of the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. Following the dissolution of the Legiones Astartes and the subsequent Second Founding, Baraquiel was one of the original Dreadnoughts from the old Ist Legion that became a part of the initial cadre of the newly incepted Black Knights Chapter. For over ten millennia, Venerable-Seneschal Baraquiel has continued to faithfully serve the Emperor. He has fought every kind of enemy known to Mankind across the width and breadth of the galaxy. However, the passage of time has slowly taken a toll on this venerable warrior and Baraquiel is only awakened at the dawn of each millennium or when his Chapter has need of his skills and wisdom. He represents a link to the ancient Ist Legion and his Chapter's past and is revered by the Black Knights as a hero almost as great as Uriah Marbas.© Algrim Whitefang
